I was about to ask Beeblebrox to "substantiate" his claim that Macs would be as malware-ridden as Windows if the market share were reversed, but then I read what s/he had written immediately before: "But implicit in ALL of these arguments, as bigoted as they are, is the substantiation that Macs are only secure because they are obscure." Could you rephrase that? What is "implicit substantiation"?

You Mac's Got a Trojan? Ha, Ha!
I hope you're not suggesting that Apple design it - have you ever used Applescript? I sort of agree with Poster #2 - languages are not the cause of bugs. Or rather, they're not the main cause. Lack of discipline and thinking is the main cause. I programmed for almost 20 years in assembler language, using strict structured programming methodology, and the code was pretty bug-free.
